I was playing the same V8 song in the Jag, we popped down to Porthcawl to stretch our legs👍
.


You just can't beat that sound.👍


Any straight six will do it.

I have a straight five that doesn't sound bad.  :y
I have a straight four that sounds like a bread van  ;D

Probably goes like one as well!  :P  ;D

I have breakdown cover  ;D

All the bits and bobs are readily available, so just need to get organised once we're past the 19 bank holidays ::)

It has a selection of tyres fitted currently, so might invest in a set of run flats just as insurance.  :-\

Only real gripe thus far is that the windows are one shot to open but you have to hold the button to get them closed... Presumably an American thing ::) ;D

At risk of teaching Granny to suck eggs.... Have you tried holding the switch for a while after the window has closed?  ???

Maybe the battery has been disconnected recently and the windows need resetting a-la Omega windows?  :-\  :)
I should probably read the manual, but yes ;)

Washed both of them & put them away in the garage, start the New year with nice clean motors.
Happy New year everyone.
